Altered Wreath

Hi Friends,

Am back with yet another mixed media project. This time altered a round chopping board as well as the Grape wine wreath.

Must say i fell in love with this 8" wreath and bought just to alter it for my project!

Amazingly it turned out well!!

Gifted this to a Dear soul for her birthday today :)
  " Happy Birthday SivaPriya"




  • Base is a 10" round chopping board. I bought it for making into a wall art, but it now houses this wreath so beautifully.




  • It looks this plain in the beginning and its the look of it, after light paste stenciling and white crackle paste textures.

  • Yup i converted its plain back surface like above, by stenciling and waxing with Prima waxes.
  • That metal embellishment is to hide the brand inscription there, and so it could be centrally placed.
And below are closer shots of the Mixed media piece, which i thoroughly enjoyed making it!






  • Loads of Prima and Finnabair products used!
Supplies:

Prima Black gesso
Prima White crackle paste
Prima Light paste
Prima Green brocade wax
Prima Vintage gold wax
Prima Goldrush paint
Prima artstones
Prima min artstones
Prima Flowers
Prima Artpebbles
Prima Hardware Resin

Heart resin from my stash

Linking this to the following challenges:
